Great experience! - Experience was great - getting up close and personal with the elephants was on my husband’s bucket list. Tour guide was personable and knowledgeable and it was easy to see how well taken care of the elephants were.

Incredible Elephant Experience - Fantastic experience. There are 3 to 4 things that you do and then get a little break.

Be sure to do it! - Great briefing and you can feel how comfortable the elephants are. We were able to get up close and personal with the giants, which I didn't expect. Very clear recommendation! Likewise, the facility and food was very good! Anytime again.

Fabulous Place - Nice to see how the world is moving away from exploitation of elephants looking after them in the best possible way. Elephant kingdom is one of those places, and we really enjoyed our time there. The tour is broken down into three stage stages. … first you make your own powerball feeds for the elephants, then we had the opportunity to get up close and personal, and finally finished off with the skywalk viewing area. Throughout all of this, the guides gave considerable information about the individual elephants, the overall aims of the sanctuary. We finished with a delicious buffet lunch. Stuff for fabulous especially Mr Chris who took time out to show us all the things he had been growing on site. Maybe not the cheapest of tours, but definitely one of the best, and he important to remember that your money is going towards the upkeep of the animals.

Great Experience! - We had the absolute BEST time at Samui Elephant Kingdom Ethical Sanctuary and Skywalk Tour! From the seamless hotel pickup to the snacks and drinks, everything was so well organized and high quality. Feeding the elephants and helping prepare their food was such a special, hands-on experience. The grounds were spacious and beautifully done, and the sky bridges were amazing—such a cool way to observe the elephants from above. The buffet afterward was genuinely delicious and exceeded expectations. This experience did not feel low budget in any way and was 100% worth the money. One of our favorite experiences in Thailand and a must-do on Samui!
